NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of Peoples Bancorp Inc. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Peoples’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 (“2011 Form 10-K”).
The accounting and reporting policies followed in the presentation of the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with those described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K, as updated by the information contained in this Form 10-Q. Management has evaluated all significant events and transactions that occurred after September 30, 2012, for potential recognition or disclosure in these consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly such information for the periods and dates indicated. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2011, contained herein has been derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year, due in part to seasonal variations and unusual or infrequently occurring items. Peoples’ insurance income includes contingent performance-based insurance commissions that are recognized by Peoples when received, which typically occurs during the first quarter of each year.
New Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standards update with new guidance on the presentation of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). This standard was effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim period within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and was to be applied retrospectively. The amendment now requires an entity to either present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. This standard is intended to improve the overall quality of financial reporting by increasing the prominence of items reported in OCI, and additionally align the presentation of OCI in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP with those prepared in accordance with IFRSs. Peoples adopted this new guidance on January 1, 2012, as required. As a result of the adoption, the components of OCI are presented in a separate statement following the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Note 2 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The measurement of fair value under US GAAP uses a hierarchy intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active exchange markets for identical assets or liabilities; also includes certain U.S. Treasury and other U.S. government and agency securities actively traded in over-the-counter markets.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; also includes derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with observable market inputs or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain U.S. government and agency securities, corporate debt securities, derivative instruments, and residential mortgage loans held for sale.
7
Level 3: Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation; also includes observable inputs for single dealer nonbinding quotes not corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain private equity investments, retained interests from securitizations, and certain collateralized debt obligations.
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis comprised the following at September 30, 2012:

The fair values used by Peoples are obtained from an independent pricing service and represent either quoted market prices for the identical securities (Level 1 inputs) or fair values determined by pricing models using a market approach that considers observable market data, such as interest rate volatilities, LIBOR yield curves, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level 2).
Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). Financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis included the following:
Impaired Loans: Impaired loans are measured and reported at fair value when the amounts to be received are less than the carrying value of the loans. Allowable methods for determining the amount of impairment include estimating fair value using the fair value of the collateral for collateral-dependent loans. Management’s determination of the fair value for these loans uses a market approach representing the estimated net proceeds to be received from the sale of the collateral based on observable market prices and market value provided by independent, licensed or certified appraisers (Level 2 inputs). At September 30, 2012, impaired loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $6.2 million were measured and reported at a fair value of $4.6 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, Peoples recognized losses on impaired loans of $0.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively, through the allowance for loan losses.

The following table presents the fair values of financial assets and liabilities carried on Peoples’ consolidated balance sheets, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis:

The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are discussed above. For certain financial assets and liabilities, carrying value approximates fair value due to the nature of the financial instrument. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents, demand and other non-maturity deposits and overnight borrowings. Peoples used the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of the following financial instruments:
Loans: The fair value of portfolio loans assumes sale of the notes to a third-party financial investor. Accordingly, this value is not necessarily the value to Peoples if the notes were held to maturity. Peoples considered interest rate, credit and market factors in estimating the fair value of loans (Level 2 inputs). In the current whole loan market, financial investors are generally requiring a much higher rate of return than the return inherent in loans if held to maturity given the lack of market liquidity. This divergence accounts for the majority of the difference in carrying amount over fair value.
Deposits: The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation based on current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs).
Long-term Borrowings: The fair value of long-term borrowings is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on rates currently available to Peoples for borrowings with similar terms (Level 2 inputs).
Junior Subordinated Notes Held by Subsidiary Trust: The fair value of the junior subordinated notes held by subsidiary trust is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on current market rates of securities with similar risk and remaining maturity (Level 2 inputs).
Bank premises and equipment, customer relationships, deposit base, banking center networks, and other information required to compute Peoples’ aggregate fair value are not included in the above information. Accordingly, the above fair values are not intended to represent the aggregate fair value of Peoples.

Peoples’ investment in equity securities was comprised entirely of common stocks issued by various unrelated bank holding companies at both September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. At September 30, 2012, there were no securities of a single issuer, other than U.S. Treasury and government agencies and U.S. government sponsored agencies, that exceeded 10% of stockholders' equity.
The gross gains and gross losses realized by Peoples from sales of available-for-sale securities for the three and nine months ended September 30 were as follows:

Management systematically evaluates available-for-sale investment securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair value on a quarterly basis. At September 30, 2012, management concluded no individual securities were other-than-temporarily impaired since Peoples did not have the intent to sell nor was it more likely than not that Peoples would be required to sell any of the securities with an unrealized loss prior to recovery. Further, the unrealized losses at both September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, were largely attributable to changes in market interest rates and spreads since the securities were purchased.
At September 30, 2012, approximately 96% of the mortgage-backed securities that have been at an unrealized loss position for twelve months or more were issued by U.S. government sponsored enterprises. The remaining 4%, or seven positions, consisted of privately issued mortgage-backed securities with all of the underlying mortgages originated prior to 2004. Three of the seven positions had a fair value less than 90% of their book value, with an aggregate book and fair value of $2.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Management has analyzed the underlying credit quality of these securities and concluded the unrealized losses were primarily attributable to the floating rate nature of these investments and the low number of loans remaining in these securities.
Furthermore, four of the seven bank-issued trust preferred securities at an unrealized loss position were within 90% of book value, while the unrealized losses for the remaining three were primarily attributable to the floating nature of those investments, the current interest rate environment and spreads within that sector. The remaining three securities had an aggregate book value of approximately $3.0 million and fair value of $2.3 million at September 30, 2012.

The table below presents the amortized cost, fair value and weighted-average yield of available-for-sale securities by contractual maturity at September 30, 2012. The average yields are based on the amortized cost. In some cases, the issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without call or prepayment penalties prior to the contractual maturity date. Rates are calculated on a fully tax-equivalent basis using a 35% federal income tax rate.

Other Securities
Peoples’ other investment securities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets consisted of restricted equity securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (“FHLB”) and the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland (“FRB”), and a capital investment in West Virginia Bankers Insurance. These securities are carried at cost since they do not have readily determinable fair values due to their restricted nature and Peoples does not exercise significant influence over the entities.
Pledged Securities
Peoples had pledged available-for-sale investment securities with a carrying value of $340.8 million and $359.1 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, to secure public and trust department deposits and repurchase agreements in accordance with federal and state requirements. Additionally, Peoples had pledged held-to-maturity investment securities with a carrying value of $30.2 million and $3.0 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, to secure public and trust department deposits and repurchase agreements in accordance with federal and state requirements. Peoples also pledged available-for-sale investment securities with carrying values of $53.6 million and $65.2 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, to secure additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB and the FRB.

Note 4 Loans
Peoples' loan portfolio consists of various types of loans originated primarily as a result of lending opportunities within Peoples' primary market areas of central and southeastern Ohio, west central West Virginia, and northeastern Kentucky. The major classifications of loan balances, excluding loans held for sale, were as follows:

Peoples has acquired various loans through business combinations for which there was, at acquisition, evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and for which it was probable that all contractually required payments would not be collected. The carrying amounts of these loans included in the loan balances above are summarized as follows:

Peoples has pledged certain loans secured by 1-4 family and multifamily residential mortgages under a blanket collateral agreement to secure borrowings from the FHLB. The amount of such pledged loans totaled $186.7 million and $184.8 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Peoples also had pledged commercial loans to secure borrowings with the FRB. The outstanding balances of these loans totaled $146.4 million and $124.0 million at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.
Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans
A loan is considered past due if any required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were required to be made under the terms of the loan agreement. A loan may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loan is considered past due. The recorded investments in loans on nonaccrual status and accruing loans delinquent for 90 days or more were as follows:

Credit Quality Indicators
As discussed in Note 1 of Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K, Peoples categorizes the majority of its loans into risk categories based upon an established risk grading matrix using a scale of 1 to 8. A description of the general characteristics of the risk grades used by Peoples is as follows:
“Pass” (grades 1 through 4): Loans in this risk category involve borrowers of acceptable-to-strong credit quality and risk who have the apparent ability to satisfy their loan obligations. Loans in this risk grade would possess sufficient mitigating factors, such as adequate collateral or strong guarantors possessing the capacity to repay the debt if required, for any weakness that may exist.
“Watch” (grade 5): Loans in this risk grade are the equivalent of the regulatory definition of “Other Assets Especially Mentioned” classification. Loans in this category possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness, which requires a high level of management attention. Potential weaknesses include declining trends in operating earnings and cash flows and /or reliance on the secondary source of repayment. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in noticeable deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in Peoples' credit position.
“Substandard” (grade 6): Loans in this risk grade are inadequately protected by the borrower's current financial condition and payment capability or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have one or more well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly repayment of debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that Peoples will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
“Doubtful” (grade 7): Loans in this risk grade have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or orderly repayment in full, on the basis of current existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the exposure, its classification as an estimate loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined.
“Loss” (grade 8): Loans in this risk grade are considered to be non-collectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This does not mean the loan has absolutely no recovery value, but rather it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off the loan, even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future. Charge-offs against the allowance for loan losses are taken in the period in which the loan becomes uncollectible. Consequently, Peoples typically does not maintain a recorded investment in loans within this category.
Consumer loans and other smaller-balance loans are evaluated and categorized as “substandard”, “doubtful” or “loss” based upon the regulatory definition of these classes and consistent with regulatory requirements. All other loans not evaluated individually nor meeting the regulatory conditions to be categorized as described above would be considered as being “not rated”.
The following table summarizes the risk category of Peoples' loan portfolio based upon the most recent analysis performed:

At September 30, 2012, Peoples' impaired loans shown in the table above included loans that were classified as troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs'). The restructuring of a loan is considered a TDR if both (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and (ii) the creditor has granted a concession.
In assessing whether or not a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, Peoples considers information currently available regarding the financial condition of the borrower. This information includes, but is not limited to, whether (i) the debtor is currently in payment default on any of its debt; (ii) a payment default is probable in the foreseeable future without the modification; (iii) the debtor has declared or is in the process of declaring bankruptcy and (iv) the debtor's projected cash flow is insufficient to satisfy contractual payments due under the original terms of the loan without a modification.
Peoples considers all aspects of the modification to loan terms to determine whether or not a concession has been granted to the borrower. Key factors considered by Peoples include the debtor's ability to access funds at a market rate for debt with similar risk characteristics, the significance of the modification relative to the unpaid principal balance or collateral value of the debt, and the significance of a delay in the timing of payments relative to the original contractual terms of the loan. The most common concessions granted by Peoples generally include one or more modifications to the terms of the debt, such as (i) a reduction in the interest rate for the remaining life of the debt, (ii) an extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, (iii) a temporary period of interest-only payments, and (iv) a reduction in the contractual payment amount for either a short period or the remaining term of the loan.
During the third quarter of 2012, in accordance with regulatory guidance regarding borrowers who were in Chapter 7 bankruptcy, Peoples identified $3.3 million of loans that were TDRs. The regulatory guidance requires loans to be accounted for as collateral-dependent loans when borrowers have filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the debt has been discharged and the borrower has not reaffirmed the debt, regardless of the delinquency status of the loan. The filing of bankruptcy by the borrower is evidence of financial difficulty and the discharge of the obligation by the bankruptcy court is deemed to be a concession granted to the borrower. The $3.3 million includes $2.8 million of loans that were accruing as of September 30, 2012 since Peoples expects to collect all principal and interest payments.
The following table summarizes the loans that were modified as a TDR during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

There were no loans modified in a TDR over the last twelve months that subsequently defaulted (i.e., 90 days or more past due following a modification) during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Peoples had approximately $7,000 of additional commitments to lend additional funds to the related debtors whose terms have been modified in a TDR.

Note 5 Long-Term Borrowings
Long-term borrowings consisted of the following at:
September 30, 2012 | December 31, 2011 | |||||||||
(Dollars in thousands) | Balance | Weighted- Average Rate | Balance | Weighted- Average Rate | ||||||
Callable national market repurchase agreements | $ | 40,000 | 3.63 | % | $ | 65,000 | 3.43 | % | ||
FHLB putable non-amortizing, fixed rate advances | 50,000 | 3.32 | % | 60,000 | 3.28 | % | ||||
FHLB amortizing, fixed rate advances | 16,270 | 3.61 | % | 17,312 | 3.59 | % | ||||
Total long-term borrowings | $ | 106,270 | 3.48 | % | $ | 142,312 | 3.38 | % |
Peoples' national market repurchase agreements consisted of agreements with unrelated financial service companies and have original maturities ranging from 5 to 10 years. In general, these agreements may not be terminated by Peoples prior to maturity without incurring additional costs. The callable agreements contain call option features, in which the buyer has the right, at its discretion, to terminate the repurchase agreement after an initial period ranging from 3 months to 5 years. After the initial call period, the buyer has the right to terminate the agreement on a quarterly basis thereafter until maturity. If the buyer exercises its option, Peoples would be required to repay the agreement in whole at the quarterly date. During the first quarter of 2012, Peoples prepaid $35.0 million of wholesale borrowings resulting in early termination fees of $3.1 million. The borrowings had a weighted-average cost of 3.09%.
The FHLB advances consisted of various borrowings with original maturities ranging from 5 to 20 years that generally may not be repaid prior to maturity without Peoples incurring a penalty. The rates on the convertible rate advances are fixed for initial periods ranging from one to four years, depending on the specific advance. After the initial fixed rate period, the FHLB has the option to convert each advance to a LIBOR based, variable rate advance. If the FHLB exercises its option, Peoples may repay the advance in whole or in part on the conversion date or any subsequent repricing date without a prepayment fee. At all other times, early repayment of any convertible rate advance would result in Peoples incurring a prepayment penalty. For the putable advances, the FHLB has the option, at its sole discretion following an initial period of three months, to terminate the debt and require Peoples to repay the advance prior to the final stated maturity. After the initial period, the FHLB has the option to terminate the debt on a quarterly basis. If the advance is terminated prior to maturity, the FHLB will offer Peoples replacement funding at the then-prevailing rate on an advance product then-offered by the FHLB, subject to normal FHLB underwriting criteria. As discussed in Notes 8 and 9 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K, long-term FHLB advances are collateralized by assets owned by Peoples.
The aggregate minimum annual retirements of long-term borrowings in future periods were as follows:

Shares at September 30, 2012 | — | 11,140,100 | 605,655 |
Under its Amended Articles of Incorporation, Peoples is authorized to issue up to 50,000 preferred shares, in one or more series, having such voting powers, designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions as determined by the Board of Directors. In 2009, Peoples’ Board of Directors created a series of preferred shares designated as Peoples’ Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Shares, Series A, each without par value and having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, and fixed 39,000 shares as the authorized number of such shares (the “Series A Preferred Shares”). These Series A Preferred Shares subsequently were sold to the United States Department of the Treasury (the “U.S. Treasury”), along with a ten-year warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 313,505 Peoples common shares at an exercise price of $18.66 per share (subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments), for an aggregate purchase price of $39 million in cash in connection with Peoples’ participation in the U.S. Treasury’s TARP Capital Purchase Program. The entire 39,000 Series A Preferred Shares were repurchased during 2011 at an aggregate price of $39 million.
On February 15, 2012, Peoples completed the repurchase of the Warrant for a purchase price of $1,200,724.

Note 7 Employee Benefit Plans
Peoples sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all employees hired before January 1, 2010. The plan provides retirement benefits based on an employee’s years of service and compensation. For employees hired before January 1, 2003, the amount of postretirement benefit is based on the employee’s average monthly compensation pay over the highest five consecutive years out of the employee’s last ten years with Peoples while an eligible employee. For employees hired on or after January 1, 2003, the amount of postretirement benefit is based on 2% of the employee’s annual compensation plus accrued interest. Effective January 1, 2010, the pension plan was closed to new entrants. Effective March 1, 2011, the accrual of pension plan benefits for all participants was frozen. Peoples recognized this freeze as a curtailment as of December 31, 2010 and March 1, 2011, under the terms of the pension plan. Peoples also provides post-retirement health and life insurance benefits to former employees and directors. Only those individuals who retired before January 27, 2012 were eligible for life insurance benefits. All retirees are eligible for health benefits, however, Peoples only pays 100% of the cost for those individuals who retired before January 1, 1993. For all others, the retiree is responsible for most, if not all, of the cost of health benefits. Peoples’ policy is to fund the cost of the benefits as they arise.
The following tables detail the components of the net periodic cost for the plans:

Under US GAAP, Peoples is required to recognize a settlement gain or loss when the aggregate amount of lump-sum distributions to participants equals or exceeds the sum of the service and interest cost components of the net periodic pension cost. The amount of settlement gain or loss recognized is the pro rata amount of the unrealized gain or loss existing immediately prior to the settlement. In general, both the projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets are required to be remeasured in order to determine the settlement gain or loss.
17
In the second quarter of 2012, the total lump-sum distributions made to participants, when added to the lump-sum distributions made in the first quarter of 2012, caused the total settlements through six months of 2012 to exceed the recognition threshold for settlement gains or losses. As a result, Peoples remeasured its pension obligation and plan assets as of April 1, 2012 as part of the calculation of the settlement loss recognized. The following table summarizes the change in pension obligation and funded status as a result of this remeasurement and the aggregate settlements for the six months ended June 30, 2012:

During the third quarter of 2012, there was an inconsequential amount of lump-sum distributions and as a result, no additional settlement charge was recorded.
Note 8 Stock-Based Compensation
Under the Peoples Bancorp Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Plan (the “2006 Equity Plan”), Peoples may grant, among other awards, nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, unrestricted common share awards or any combination thereof covering up to 500,000 common shares to employees and non-employee directors. Prior to 2007, Peoples granted nonqualified and incentive stock options to employees and nonqualified stock options to non-employee directors under the 2006 Equity Plan and predecessor plans. Since February 2007, Peoples has granted a combination of restricted common shares and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) to be settled in common shares to employees and restricted common shares to non-employee directors subject to the terms and conditions prescribed by the 2006 Equity Plan. In general, common shares issued in connection with stock-based awards are issued from treasury shares to the extent available. If no treasury shares are available, common shares are issued from authorized but unissued common shares.
Stock Options
Under the provisions of the 2006 Equity Plan and predecessor stock option plans, the exercise price per share of any stock option granted may not be less than the grant date fair market value of the underlying common shares. All stock options granted to both employees and non-employee directors expire ten years from the date of grant. The most recent stock option grants to employees and non-employee directors occurred in 2006. The stock options granted to employees vested three years after the grant date, while the stock options granted to non-employee directors vested six months after the grant date.

Stock Appreciation Rights
SARs granted to employees have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of Peoples’ common shares on the date of grant and will be settled using common shares of Peoples. Additionally, the SARs granted vested three years after the grant date and expire ten years from the date of grant. The most recent grant of SARs occurred in 2008. The following table summarizes Peoples’ SARs outstanding at September 30, 2012:
Exercise Price | Number of Common Shares Subject to SARs Outstanding & Exercisable | Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life | |
$23.26 | 2,000 | 4.8 | |
$23.77 | 11,509 | 5.4 | |
$29.25 | 9,340 | 4.4 | |
Total | 22,849 | 4.9 |
Restricted Shares
Under the 2006 Equity Plan, Peoples may award restricted common shares to officers, key employees and non-employee directors. In general, the restrictions on common shares awarded to non-employee directors expire after six months, while the restrictions on common shares awarded to employees expire after periods ranging from one to three years. In the first quarter of 2012, Peoples granted restricted common shares to officers and key employees with a two-year time-based vesting period, a three-year time-based vesting period or a two-year performance-based vesting period. For the restricted common shares subject to performance-based vesting, the restrictions on these restricted common shares will lapse two years after the grant date upon the achievement of cumulative diluted earnings per common share of $2.83 for the three-year period ending December 31, 2013.

On September 13, 2012, the Board of Directors announced a future grant of unrestricted common shares to certain employees that do not already participate in the 2006 Equity Plan. The grant is anticipated to be for an aggregate of approximately 9,000 common shares and will have a grant date of October 30, 2012.

Note 10 Acquisitions
On September 14, 2012, Peoples completed its acquisition of Sistersville Bancorp, Inc. ("Sistersville") for total cash consideration of $9.8 million. Sistersville and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings Bank, which operates two full-service branches in Sistersville and Parkersburg, West Virginia, merged into Peoples' wholly-owned subsidiary, Peoples Bank, National Association. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting under US GAAP. The assets purchased, liabilities assumed, and related identifiable intangible assets were recorded at their acquisition date fair values. The goodwill recognized will not be tax deductible for income tax purposes.
As a result of the Sistersville acquisition, Peoples acquired loans of $31 million and deposits of $39 million. The balances and operations related to the acquisition are included in Peoples' consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition, and did not materially impact Peoples' financial position, results of operations or cash flows for any period presented.
On September 1, 2012, Peoples acquired a small financial advisory book of business in Gallipolis, Ohio for cash consideration of $0.4 million. A portion of the consideration is contingent upon revenue metrics being achieved. The balances and operations related to the acquisition are included in Peoples' consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition, and did not materially impact Peoples' financial position, results of operations or cash flows for any period presented.
During the second quarter of 2012, Peoples acquired a small financial advisory book of business in Wood County, West Virginia for cash consideration of $0.9 million. A portion of the consideration is contingent upon revenue metrics being achieved. The balances and operations related to the acquisition are included in Peoples' consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition, and did not materially impact Peoples' financial position, results of operations or cash flows for any period presented.

(6) | legislative or regulatory changes or actions, including in particular the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the regulations promulgated and to be promulgated thereunder, which may subject Peoples, its subsidiaries or one or more acquired companies to a variety of new and more stringent legal and regulatory requirements which adversely affect their respective businesses; |
(7) | changes in accounting standards, policies, estimates or procedures may adversely affect Peoples' reported financial condition or results of operations; |
(8) | adverse changes in the conditions and trends in the financial markets, which may adversely affect the fair value of securities within Peoples' investment portfolio and interest rate sensitivity of Peoples' consolidated balance sheet; |
(9) | Peoples' ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries; |
(10) | Peoples' ability to maintain required capital levels and adequate sources of funding and liquidity; |
(11) | the impact of larger or similar financial institutions encountering problems, which may adversely affect the banking industry and/or Peoples' business generation and retention, funding and liquidity; |
(12) | the costs and effects of regulatory and legal developments, including the outcome of potential regulatory or other governmental inquiries and legal proceedings and results of regulatory examinations; |
(13) | Peoples' ability to secure confidential information through the use of computer systems and telecommunications networks, including those of our third-party vendors and other service providers, may prove inadequate, which could adversely affect customer confidence in Peoples and/or result in Peoples incurring a financial loss; |
(14) | the overall adequacy of Peoples' risk management program; |
(15) | Peoples' ability to complete and, if completed, successfully integrate acquisitions, including the Sistersville acquisition; and |
(16) | other risk factors relating to the banking industry or Peoples as detailed from time to time in Peoples’ reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including those risk factors included in the disclosure under the headings “ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS” of Peoples’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Form 10-K”). |
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the execution date of this Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements. Although management believes the expectations in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of management’s knowledge of Peoples’ business and operations, it is
24
possible that actual results may differ materially from these projections. Additionally, Peoples undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as may be required by applicable legal requirements. Copies of documents filed with the SEC are available free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and/or from Peoples Bancorp Inc.’s website – www.peoplesbancorp.com under the “Investor Relations” section.
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements, and notes thereto, contained in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K, as well as the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, ratios, statistics and discussions contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Business Overview
The following discussion and analysis of Peoples’ Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements is presented to provide insight into management’s assessment of the financial condition and results of operations.
Peoples offers diversified financial products and services through 46 financial service locations and 43 ATMs in southeastern Ohio, west central West Virginia and northeastern Kentucky through its financial service units – Peoples Bank, National Association (“Peoples Bank”) and Peoples Insurance Agency, LLC, a subsidiary of Peoples Bank. Peoples Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System and subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
Peoples’ products and services include traditional banking products, such as deposit accounts, lending products and trust services. Peoples provides services through traditional offices, ATMs and telephone and internet-based banking. Peoples also offers a complete array of insurance products and makes available custom-tailored fiduciary and wealth management services. Brokerage services are offered exclusively through an unaffiliated registered broker-dealer located at Peoples’ offices.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies of Peoples conform to US GAAP and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Management has identified the accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to an understanding of Peoples’ Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis at September 30, 2012, which were unchanged from the policies disclosed in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
As more fully discussed in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually and updated quarterly if management believes there are indicators of potential impairment. Peoples performs its required annual impairment test as of June 30 each year.
At June 30, 2012, management performed its annual impairment test of Peoples’ recorded goodwill. The methodology and significant assumptions made by management were consistent with those disclosed in Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K. Based on its analysis at June 30, 2012, management concluded no goodwill impairment existed since the fair value of Peoples’ single reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. The analysis indicated any of the following situations would cause a decline in the fair value of Peoples’ reporting unit below its book value: (1) a 5% sustained decline in future cash flows or (2) a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate. No indicators of goodwill impairment existed at September 30, 2012.
Summary of Recent Transactions and Events
The following is a summary of recent transactions and events that have impacted or are expected to impact Peoples’ results of operations or financial condition:
◦ | During the second quarter of 2012, Peoples became more active with its merger and acquisition activities. These activities included the merger transactions with Sistersville Bancorp, Inc. ("Sistersville") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings Bank, announced on June 5, 2012 and subsequently completed on September 14, 2012, and the purchase of a small financial advisory book of business in Wood County, West Virginia. In the third quarter of 2012, Peoples purchased another small financial advisory book of business in Gallipolis, Ohio. These transactions are more fully described in Note 10 of the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, Peoples' management team continues to evaluate other acquisition opportunities involving banks, insurance agencies and wealth management providers located in Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky. As a result, |
25
Peoples incurred $337,000 of acquisition-related expenses, primarily fees for legal costs, other professional services, deconversion costs and write-offs associated with assets acquired, for the three months ended September 30, 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, Peoples incurred $559,000 of acquisition-related expenses. Approximately a quarter of these costs related to acquisition opportunities that management determined did not meet Peoples' criteria and thus negotiations were terminated prior to completion.
◦ | On September 17, 2012, Peoples introduced its new brand as part of a company-wide brand revitalization. The brand is Peoples' promise, which is a guarantee of satisfaction and quality. Costs associated with rebranding efforts were approximately $172,000 during the third quarter 2012. Peoples will continue to incur costs throughout 2012 and 2013 associated with the brand revitalization, including marketing due to advertisement, and depreciation for the revitalization of our branch network. |
◦ | As described in Note 7 of the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, Peoples incurred settlement charges of $353,000 during the second quarter of 2012 due to the aggregate amount of lump-sum distributions to participants in Peoples' defined benefit pension plan through the first six months of 2012 exceeding the threshold for recognizing such charges during the second quarter. No such charges were recognized in the third quarter of 2012. Settlement charges of $408,000 were recognized during the third quarter of 2011. |
◦ | In the first quarter of 2012, Peoples prepaid $35 million of wholesale borrowings using short-term funds, which resulted in prepayment charges of $3.1 million. These borrowings had an average cost of 3.09% and consisted of both term repurchase agreements and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The impact of the prepayment charges on first quarter earnings was offset by $3.2 million in gains from the sale of $60.5 million in investment securities. The securities sold were primarily mortgage-backed securities issued by U.S. government-sponsored agencies. The proceeds of these investment securities sales were reinvested into other securities with similar duration, credit risk and yield. |
◦ | In 2009, Peoples received $39.0 million of new equity capital under the U.S. Treasury’s TARP Capital Purchase Program. The investment was in the form of newly-issued non-voting cumulative perpetual preferred shares and a related 10-year warrant to purchase common shares sold by Peoples to the U.S. Treasury (the “TARP Capital Investment”). On February 2, 2011, Peoples repurchased $21.0 million of the preferred shares held by the U.S. Treasury and the remaining $18.0 million were repurchased on December 28, 2011 (collectively, the "TARP Capital Redemption"). On February 15, 2012, Peoples completed the repurchase of the warrant for an aggregate price of $1.2 million, which was recognized as a direct reduction in the common stock component of Peoples' stockholders' equity. |
◦ | Since the second quarter of 2011, Peoples has experienced generally improving trends in several asset quality metrics, after a three-year trend of higher credit losses and non-performing assets than Peoples' long-term historical levels. Additionally, the amount of criticized loans has decreased due in part to Peoples upgrading the loan quality ratings of various commercial loans. These conditions have resulted in lower provisions for loan losses. However, unfavorable economic conditions within Peoples' market area, coupled with sustained weakness in commercial real estate values, continues to place stress on certain industries and segments of Peoples' loan portfolio, such as the hospitality sector. |
◦ | Peoples' net interest income and margin are impacted by changes in market interest rates based upon actions taken by the Federal Reserve Board either directly or through its Open Market Committee. These actions include changing its target Federal Funds Rate (the interest rate at which banks lend money to each other), Discount Rate (the interest rate charged to banks for money borrowed from the Federal Reserve Bank) and longer-term market interest rates (primarily U.S. Treasury securities). Longer-term market interest rates also are affected by the demand for U.S. Treasury securities. The resulting changes in the yield curve slope have a direct impact on reinvestment rates for Peoples' earning assets. |
◦ | The Federal Reserve Board has maintained its target Federal Funds Rate at a historically low level of 0% to 0.25% since December 2008 and has maintained the Discount Rate at 0.75% since December 2010. The Federal Reserve Board continues to indicate there is the potential for these short-term rates to remain unchanged until early 2015. |
26
◦ | Since late 2008, the Federal Reserve Board has taken various actions to lower longer-term market interest rates as a means of stimulating the economy – a policy commonly referred to as “quantitative easing”. These actions have included the buying and selling of mortgage-backed and other debt securities through its open market operations. As a result, the slope of the U.S. Treasury yield curve has fluctuated significantly. Substantial flattening occurred in late 2008, in mid-2010 and since early third quarter of 2011, while moderate steepening occurred in the second half of 2009 and late 2010. |
The impact of these transactions and events, where material, is discussed in the applicable sections of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended September 30, 2012, was $4.8 million, or $0.45 per diluted common share, versus $3.7 million and $0.35 per diluted common share a year ago. On a year-to-date basis, net income available to common shareholders was $16.5 million through September 30, 2012, compared to $7.7 million a year ago, representing earnings per diluted common share of $1.56 and $0.73, respectively. The higher earnings compared to the prior year were attributable to a mix of improved operating performance, plus the impact of continued asset quality improvement.
In the third quarter of 2012, Peoples realized a $1.0 million recovery of loan losses and $4.2 million recovery on a year-to-date basis through September 30, 2012, as several asset quality metrics maintained favorable trends. In comparison, Peoples recorded provisions for loan losses of $0.9 million and $8.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.
Net interest income was 2% lower than the linked quarter, while net interest margin compressed 13 basis points to 3.30% as interest income decreased more than interest expense. For both the quarter and year-to-date, net interest income was consistent with the prior year as decreases in interest income were matched by a reduction in interest expense. Net interest margin compressed 9 basis points for the quarter and 4 basis points on a year-to-date basis. Net interest margin compression was a result of long-term interest rates remaining at historically low levels.
Non-interest income, which excludes gains and losses on investment securities, asset disposals and other transactions, was up 2% compared to the third quarter of 2011 and 6% on a year-to-date basis, as strong revenue generation occurred in several major sources. The most notable growth occurred in mortgage banking income, which grew $268,000 over the prior year quarter and $839,000 on a year-to-date basis.
Total non-interest expense was $15.7 million for the third quarter of 2012, consistent with the linked quarter and 2% higher than the prior year third quarter. The 4% increase year-to-date was primarily caused by additional incentive compensation of $926,000, which was a result of the improved financial performance of Peoples. Acquisition-related costs of $487,000 also contributed to the increase over the prior year.
At September 30, 2012, total assets were up 4% to $1.87 billion versus $1.79 billion at year-end 2011, with the increase due mostly to higher net loan balances. Gross portfolio loan balances grew $50.3 million during the nine months of 2012, of which $30.8 million was a result of the Sistersville acquisition. The allowance for loan losses decreased $5.1 million to $18.6 million, or 1.88% of gross loans, compared to $23.7 million and 2.53% at December 31, 2011. Total investment securities were down $22.6 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $669.2 million at the prior year-end.
Total liabilities were $1.65 billion at September 30, 2012, up $30.9 million for the quarter and $60.2 million since December 31, 2011. Retail deposit balances experienced continued growth during the third quarter of 2012, increasing $33.7 million since the prior quarter-end and $110.3 million compared to year-end 2011. The Sistersville acquisition added $39.4 million of interest-bearing deposits, almost equally divided among certificates of deposits, money market and savings accounts and $0.9 million of non-interest-bearing deposits. Non-interest-bearing deposits comprised 20.6% of total retail deposits versus 18.6% at year-end 2011. At September 30, 2012, total borrowed funds were $166.5 million, down $50.0 million compared to the prior year-end, as Peoples repaid $35 million in long-term borrowing during the first quarter.
At September 30, 2012, total stockholders' equity was $218.8 million, up $12.2 million since December 31, 2011. Earnings exceeded dividends declared by $13.0 million. The resulting increase in stockholders' equity was mostly offset by the impact of Peoples repurchasing the warrant previously held by the U.S. Treasury. Regulatory capital ratios remained significantly higher than "well capitalized" minimums. Peoples' Tier 1 Common Capital ratio increased to 13.86% at
27
September 30, 2012, while the Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 17.16% versus 16.20% at December 31, 2011. In addition, Peoples' tangible common equity to tangible asset ratio was 8.37% and tangible book value per share was $14.28 at September 30, 2012, versus 8.45% and $14.18 at June 30, 2012 and 8.22% and $13.53 at December 31, 2011. The modest reductions in tangible common ratios during the third quarter of 2011 were primarily the result of the Sistersville acquisition.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the amount by which interest income exceeds interest expense, remains Peoples’ largest source of revenue. The amount of net interest income earned by Peoples each quarter is affected by various factors, including changes in market interest rates due to the Federal Reserve Board’s monetary policy, the level and degree of pricing competition for both loans and deposits in Peoples’ markets, and the amount and composition of Peoples’ earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Net interest margin, which is calculated by dividing fully tax-equivalent (“FTE”) net interest income by average interest-earning assets, serves as an important measurement of the net revenue stream generated by the volume, mix and pricing of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. FTE net interest income is calculated by increasing interest income to convert tax-exempt income earned on obligations of states and political subdivisions to the pre-tax equivalent of taxable income using a 35% federal statutory tax rate. The following table details the calculation of FTE net interest income:

The yield curve remained relatively flat and interest rates remained low during the third quarter of 2012, which placed greater downward pressure on Peoples' net interest income and margin. The yield on investment securities declined further in the third quarter of 2012, as the impact of lower reinvestment rates was magnified by higher levels of principal pre-payments within mortgage-backed securities. During the third quarter of 2012, the average monthly principal cash flow received by Peoples from its investment portfolio was approximately $14.2 million, compared to a monthly average of approximately $9.0 million during the same period in 2011. The cash flow received from the investment portfolio over the last twelve months was $147.1 million, which had an average yield of 3.95% and was reinvested in securities with a yield in the range of 2.0% to 2.5%. Similar conditions within Peoples' loan portfolio resulted in total asset yields declining by 18 basis points during the quarter.
Peoples' funding costs have benefited from the extinguishment of $35.0 million of higher-cost wholesale borrowings in the first quarter of 2012 and the maturity of special higher-cost retail CDs. Most of the CDs were part of a special product offering in 2008 and had an average cost of 3.87%. The majority of these high-cost CDs matured during the final two quarters of 2011, with $22.0 million at an average rate of 4.22% maturing during the first quarter of 2012. Future options to reduce funding costs are limited. Absent further reductions in funding costs, asset yield compression may continue to outpace reductions in funding costs, resulting in further net interest income and margin compression. Peoples remains diligent on minimizing the impact of margin compression on net interest income, with earning asset growth to be the key driver. Peoples will evaluate opportunities on the liability side of the balance sheet, such as prepaying long-term borrowings.
Detailed information regarding changes in the Consolidated Balance Sheets can be found under appropriate captions of the “FINANCIAL CONDITION” section of this discussion. Additional information regarding Peoples' interest rate risk and the potential impact of interest rate changes on Peoples' results of operations and financial condition can be found later in this discussion under the caption “Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity”.

The provision for, or recovery of, loan losses recorded represents the amount needed to maintain the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on management’s formal quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio and procedural methodology that estimates the amount of probable credit losses. This process considers various factors that affect losses, such as changes in Peoples’ loan quality, historical loss experience and current economic conditions. The recovery of loan losses recorded during the nine months of 2012 was driven mostly by continued improving trends in various credit quality metrics, including historical loss trends and level of criticized loans.
Additional information regarding changes in the allowance for loan losses and loan credit quality can be found later in this discussion under the caption “Allowance for Loan Losses”.

The net losses on bank premises and equipment for the third quarter of 2012 was due to the write-down of $99,000 related to a closed office location that is available for sale and asset write-offs of $72,000 associated with the Sistersville acquisition.
Non-Interest Income
Insurance income comprised the largest portion of third quarter 2012 non-interest income. The following table details Peoples’ insurance income:

Peoples' property and casualty insurance commission income benefited from a high retention rate for existing insurance customers and, to a lesser extent, improving pricing margins within the industry. The bulk of performance-based commissions typically are recorded annually in the first quarter and are based on a combination of factors, such as loss experience of insurance policies sold, production volumes, and overall financial performance of the individual insurance carriers.
Deposit account service charges continued to comprise a sizable portion of Peoples' non-interest income. The following table details Peoples’ deposit account service charges:

The amount of deposit account service charges, particularly fees for overdrafts and non-sufficient funds, is largely dependent on the timing and volume of customer activity. Peoples typically experiences a lower volume of overdraft and non-sufficient funds fees annually in the first quarter attributable to customers receiving income tax refunds, while volumes generally increase in the fourth quarter in connection with the holiday shopping season. The lower overdraft and non-sufficient funds fees were largely due to customer behavior.

Peoples' fiduciary and brokerage revenues continue to be based primarily upon the value of assets under management. The following tables detail Peoples’ trust and investment income and related assets under management:

Over the last several quarters, Peoples has continued to attract new managed funds, due in part to the addition of experienced financial advisors in previously underserved market areas. Peoples also added approximately $80 million in brokerage assets during the third quarter of 2012 and $20 million in the second quarter of 2012 due to acquisitions completed during the quarters. The U.S. financial markets experienced a general increase during the third quarter, which also contributed to the increase in managed assets.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, mortgage banking income was up significantly, 72% and 81%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The increases were the result of higher production volumes driven mostly by refinancing activity. In the third quarter of 2012, Peoples sold approximately $32 million of loans to the secondary market compared to $13 million in the third quarter of 2011. For the nine months, Peoples sold $86 million of loans in 2012 versus $39 million in 2011.
Non-Interest Expense
Salaries and employee benefit costs remain Peoples’ largest non-interest expense, accounting for approximately half of total non-interest expense. The following table details Peoples’ salaries and employee benefit costs:

Base salaries and wages through nine months of 2012 have benefited from the reduction in full-time equivalent employees in recent quarters as part of Peoples' expense management efforts. Sales-based and incentive compensation was higher for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 due primarily to expense accruals associated with corporate incentive plans, which are tied largely to Peoples' financial performance. Peoples also has incurred higher sales-based compensation corresponding with increased sales production within its mortgage banking, insurance and wealth
34
management activities. This additional expense contributed to the year-over-year increase in sales-based and incentive compensation for both the quarter and year-to-date.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, employee benefit costs have benefited from lower employee medical benefit plan expenses, which are tied to claims activity. The non-recurrence of pension settlement charges in the third quarter of 2012 resulted in lower employee benefit costs. Management expects additional pension settlement charges in fourth quarter of 2012, with the amount expected to be substantially lower than the amounts incurred for the same period of 2011.
Second quarter 2012 stock-based compensation expense included $153,000 of additional expense relating to equity-based incentive awards granted to key employees in prior years. Much of the additional expense was the result of actual forfeitures being lower than previously estimated, while a lesser portion related to awards granted in the first quarter of 2011 with performance-based vesting conditions. In prior quarters, Peoples did not record any expense related to these performance-based awards since management had determined it was not probable these awards would vest. However, the continued strong earnings performance in the second quarter of 2012 led management to conclude it was probable these awards would vest. Under US GAAP, Peoples was required to recognize the entire pro rata expense relating to these awards since the grant date in the second quarter. Stock-based compensation expense for the first quarter of 2012 included the entire cost of awards with time-based vesting which were granted in the first quarter to employees eligible for retirement on the grant date. On September 13, 2012, the Board of Directors announced a future grant of unrestricted common shares to all full-time and some part-time employees that do not already participate in the equity plan. The grant is anticipated to be for an aggregate of approximately 9,000 common shares and will have a grant date of October 30, 2012. As a result, the fourth quarter of 2012 expense will reflect the entire fair value of these awards.
Peoples’ net occupancy and equipment expense was comprised of the following:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, professional fees were $246,000 higher compared to the prior year due to legal and consulting costs incurred associated with acquisition opportunities.
Peoples has experienced a steady increase in electronic banking expense corresponding with debit card usage by customers. However, the additional expenses have been more than offset by higher electronic banking revenue during the year. As a result, management considers the expense increase reasonable.
Marketing expense, which includes advertising, donation and other public relations costs, was up year-over-year for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. These variances were the result of approximately $73,000 of costs recorded in the third quarter of 2012 associated with the introduction of Peoples' new brand and contributions made to Peoples Bancorp Foundation Inc., a private foundation established by Peoples in 2004 to make charitable contributions to organizations within Peoples' primary market area. In both the first and second quarters of 2012, Peoples made a $100,000 contribution to its foundation, compared to a $100,000 contribution in the third quarter of 2011.
Other non-interest expense was up 23% over the linked quarter, 35% over the third quarter of 2011 and 16% on a year-to-date basis. The increases were due largely to the deconversion costs of $158,000 that were incurred in the third quarter of 2012 as part of the Sistersville acquisition.
Peoples' efficiency ratio, calculated as non-interest expense less amortization of other intangible assets divided by FTE net interest income plus non-interest income, was 70.06% for the third quarter of 2012 and 68.36% through nine months of 2012. Both of these ratios were higher than the same periods in 2011, due mostly to the acquisition-related costs. Management continues to target an efficiency ratio in the range of 66% to 68% for 2012.
35
Income Tax Expense
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, Peoples recorded income tax expense of $7.9 million, for an effective tax rate of 32.3%. This effective tax rate represents management's current estimate of the rate for the entire year. In comparison, Peoples recorded income tax expense of $3.3 million for the same period in 2011, for an effective tax rate of 27.3%. The key driver of the higher effective tax rate was the year-over-year increase in pre-tax earnings.
Pre-Provision Net Revenue
Pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR") has become a key financial measure used by federal bank regulatory agencies when assessing the capital adequacy of financial institutions. PPNR is defined as net interest income plus non-interest income minus non-interest expense and therefore excludes the provision for loan losses and all gains and losses included in earnings. As a result, PPNR represents the earnings capacity that can be either retained in order to build capital or used to absorb unexpected losses and preserve existing capital.
The following table provides a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the amounts reported in Peoples' consolidated financial statements for the periods presented:

FINANCIAL CONDITION
Cash and Cash Equivalents
At September 30, 2012, Peoples' interest-bearing deposits in other banks were up compared to both the linked quarter and prior year end. This increase was largely the result of $15.9 million of excess cash reserves being maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank. In comparison, Peoples maintained no excess cash reserves at June 30, 2012 and $4.4 million at December 31, 2011, respectively. The amount of excess cash reserves maintained is dependent upon Peoples' daily liquidity position, which is driven primarily by changes in deposit and loan balances.
Through nine months of 2012, Peoples' total cash and cash equivalents increased $20.3 million, as cash provided by Peoples' operating and financing activities exceeded the $6.7 million of cash used by investing activities. Investing activities used $6.7 million of cash to fund the $20.5 million net loan growth, while proceeds from sales and principal payments of investment securities exceeded the purchases of investment securities by $18.1 million. Within Peoples' financing activities, deposit growth generated $61.9 million of cash which was used primarily to reduce borrowed funds by $53.1 million and to repurchase the warrant held by the U.S Treasury.
36
Through nine months of 2011, Peoples' total cash and cash equivalents decreased $42.9 million, due mostly to cash used in financing activities for the partial TARP Capital Redemption in the amount of $21.0 million and a $6.7 million reduction in borrowed funds. Investing activities used net cash of $25.0 million, primarily purchases of securities for the investment portfolio, which was more than offset by cash from operating activities of $32.8 million.

Peoples has maintained the size of its investment portfolio over the last several quarters due to the lack of meaningful loan growth. The 6% decrease in the investment portfolio during the quarter was due to the timing of the sale of approximately $50 million securities late in the quarter for which the funds were reinvested in early fourth quarter 2012. In 2012, Peoples continued to designate additional securities as "held-to-maturity" at the time of their purchase. For each security, management has made the determination Peoples would hold these securities until maturity and concluded Peoples had the ability to do so.
37
Peoples' investment in residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities largely consists of securities either guaranteed by the U.S. government or issued by U.S. government sponsored agencies, such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The remaining portion of Peoples' mortgage-backed securities consists of securities issued by other entities, including other financial institutions, which are not guaranteed by the U.S. government. The amount of these “non-agency” securities included in the residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities totals above was as follows:

In the third quarter of 2011, Peoples sold residential mortgage-backed securities which were showing signs of increased stress, which caused the decline in this portion of the portfolio compared to June 30, 2011. Additionally, management continues to reinvest the principal runoff from the non-agency securities into U.S agency investments, which accounted for the decline experienced in the third quarter of 2012 and prior quarters. At September 30, 2012, Peoples' non-agency portfolio consisted entirely of first lien residential and commercial mortgages, with nearly all of the underlying loans in these securities originated prior to 2004 and possessing fixed interest rates. Management continues to monitor the non-agency portfolio closely for leading indicators of increasing stress and will continue to be proactive in taking actions to mitigate such risk when necessary.

Gross portfolio loans increased $33.5 million over the linked quarter due to the Sistersville acquisition which added $30.8 million, including $25.3 million in residential real estate loans and $4.3 million in non-mortgage consumer loans. Commercial real estate loan balances decreased due largely to a $7.2 million loan being paid off in the third quarter of 2012 The year-to-date decline occurred as a result of two impaired relationships with aggregate principal balances of $8.1 million being paid off in the first quarter of 2012. Commercial and industrial loan balances continued to experience steady growth
38
during 2012 due to commercial lending opportunities within Peoples' primary market area. Commercial credit line utilization is generally lower in the fourth quarter which may cause commercial and industrial loan balances to decrease slightly compared to September 30, 2012. The majority of the growth in real estate construction loan balances was a result of advances on loans with current relationships. The majority of Peoples' residential mortgage originations continues to be sold to the secondary market, due to customer preference for long-term, fixed-rate loans. Peoples does not intend to sell any of the residential real estate loans acquired as part of the Sistersville acquisition. Consumer loan balances, which consist mostly of loans to finance automobile purchases, have increased in 2012 due largely to Peoples placing greater emphasis on its consumer lending activity in recent quarters.
Loan Concentration
Peoples categorizes its commercial loans according to standard industry classifications and monitors for concentrations in a single industry or multiple industries that could be impacted by changes in economic conditions in a similar manner. Peoples' commercial lending activities continue to be spread over a diverse range of businesses from all sectors of the economy, with no single industry comprising over 10% of Peoples' total loan portfolio.
Loans secured by commercial real estate, including commercial construction loans, continue to comprise the largest portion of Peoples' loan portfolio. However, the Sistersville acquisition has created a more diversified portfolio with its large residential real estate portfolio. The following table provides information regarding the largest concentrations of commercial real estate loans within the loan portfolio at September 30, 2012:

Peoples' commercial lending activities continue to focus on lending opportunities inside its primary and secondary market areas within Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky. In all other states, the aggregate outstanding balances of commercial loans in each state was less than $4.0 million at both September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Allowance for Loan Losses
The amount of the allowance for loan losses at the end of each period represents management's estimate of expected losses from existing loans based upon its formal quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio. While this process involves allocations being made to specific loans and pools of loans, the entire allowance is available for all losses incurred within the loan portfolio. The following details management's allocation of the allowance for loan losses:

The addition of $30.8 million of loans from the Sistersville acquisition, which did not require an allowance at September 30, 2012, caused a 6 basis point reduction in the allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans ratio.
The significant allocations to commercial loans reflect the higher credit risk associated with this type of lending and the size of this loan category in relationship to the entire loan portfolio. In the third quarter of 2012, the allowance for loan losses continued to be reduced as a result of sustained improvement in several credit quality metrics. Specifically, Peoples has experienced a steady decrease in criticized loans, which are those classified as watch, substandard or doubtful, due to principal paydowns and improvements in borrowers' financial conditions. Total criticized loans decreased $43.2 million or 28% since year-end 2011, reflecting $30.5 million in principal paydowns. Peoples upgraded $9.9 million in loans during 2012 based upon the financial condition of the borrowers. Net charge-offs also remained at or below Peoples' long-term historical rate for the fifth consecutive quarter. Both of these factors had a direct impact on the estimated loss rates used to determine the appropriate allocations for commercial loans.
The allowance allocated to the residential real estate and consumer loan categories is based upon Peoples' allowance methodology for homogeneous pools of loans. The fluctuations in these allocations have been directionally consistent with the changes in loan quality, loss experience and loan balances in these categories.

The decrease in nonperforming assets during the third quarter of 2012 was due mostly to two commercial real estate loans, with one borrower, being paid-off. The relationship had an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $0.9 million at June 30, 2012, which was classified as troubled debt restructurings. During the first quarter of 2012, nonaccrual commercial real estate loans with aggregate balances of $8.1 million at year-end 2011 were paid off, which contributed to the year-to-date decline. These reductions also drove a decrease in total criticized loans, which were down 29% at September 30, 2012 versus year-end 2011.
The majority of Peoples' nonaccrual commercial real estate loans continues to consist of non-owner occupied commercial properties and real estate development projects. In general, management believes repayment of these loans is dependent on the sale of the underlying collateral. As such, the carrying values of these loans are ultimately supported by management's estimate of the net proceeds Peoples would receive upon the sale of the collateral. These estimates are based in part on market values provided by independent, licensed or certified appraisers periodically, but no less frequently than annually. Given the sustained weakness in commercial real estate values, management continues to monitor changes in real estate values from quarter-to-quarter and updates its estimates as needed based on observable changes in market prices and/or updated appraisals for similar properties.

The Sistersville acquisition added $38.5 million of interest-bearing deposits, divided almost equally among certificates of deposits (“CDs”), money market and savings accounts, and $0.9 million of non-interest-bearing deposits.
Also during 2012, Peoples maintained its recent deposit strategy of growing low-cost core deposits, such as checking and savings accounts, and reducing its reliance on higher-cost, non-core deposits, such as CDs and brokered deposits. This strategy has included more selective pricing of long-term CDs, governmental/public fund deposits and similar non-core deposits, as well as not renewing maturing brokered deposits. These actions accounted for much of the changes in deposit balances over the last several quarters.
Non-interest-bearing deposits continued to grow in the third quarter of 2012, due largely to higher commercial deposit balances. The increased balances reflect Peoples' increased focus on obtaining the deposit relationships of its commercial clients. Since year-end 2011, non-interest-bearing commercial deposit balances have increased $26.1 million, of which $7.7 million of this growth occurred during the third quarter.

Any short-term FHLB advances would consist of overnight borrowings by Peoples being maintained in connection with the management of Peoples' daily liquidity position; however, there were none at September 30, 2012. The reduction in the long-term borrowings since year-end 2011 was due to Peoples prepaying a $10 million FHLB advance and $25 million of national market repurchase agreements during the first quarter of 2012. Peoples expects to continue using funds generated from other sources, such as retail deposit growth, to repay maturing long-term borrowings and to minimize the need for overnight borrowings.

Capital/Stockholders’ Equity
During the third quarter of 2012, Peoples' total stockholders' equity benefited from earnings exceeding dividends declared. Regulatory capital ratios and tangible capital ratios experienced modest reductions in the third quarter due to the Sistersville acquisition. The increase in stockholders' equity through nine months of 2012 was partially offset by the impact of Peoples repurchasing the warrant previously issued to the U.S. Treasury at a cost of $1.2 million during the first quarter of 2012.
At September 30, 2012, capital levels for both Peoples and Peoples Bank remained substantially higher than the minimum amounts needed to be considered "well capitalized" institutions under banking regulations. These higher capital levels reflect Peoples' desire to maintain strong capital positions to provide greater flexibility to work through the remaining asset quality issues plus provide capacity to grow the company.

During the second quarter of 2012, the federal bank regulatory agencies jointly issued three notices of proposed rulemaking ("NPRs") that would revise and replace the agencies' current capital rules. The impact of these NPRs, if adopted, would result in higher risk-based and leverage capital requirements consistent with agreements reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, referred to as Basel III. Most of the provisions contained within the NPRs would be phased-in over periods ranging from 3 to 10 years. Management continues to evaluate the potential impact of the NPRs to ensure the capital levels of both Peoples and Peoples Bank remain higher than the amounts needed to be considered "well capitalized". However, the final regulations ultimately applicable to Peoples and Peoples Bank may be substantially different from those contemplated in the NPRs.
In addition to traditional capital measurements, management uses tangible capital measures to evaluate the adequacy of Peoples' stockholders' equity. Such ratios represent non-GAAP financial information since their calculation removes the impact of intangible assets acquired through acquisitions on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Management believes this information is useful to investors since it facilitates the comparison of Peoples' operating performance, financial condition and trends to peers, especially those without a similar level of intangible assets to that of Peoples. Further, intangible assets generally are difficult to convert into cash, especially during a financial crisis, and could decrease substantially in value should there be deterioration in the overall franchise value. As a result, tangible common equity represents a conservative measure of the capacity for a company to incur losses but remain solvent.

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity
While Peoples is exposed to various business risks, the risks relating to interest rate sensitivity and liquidity are major risks that can materially impact future results of operations and financial condition due to their complexity and dynamic nature. The objective of Peoples' asset/liability management (“ALM”) function is to measure and manage these risks in order to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent capital adequacy, liquidity and safety. This objective requires Peoples to focus on interest rate risk exposure and adequate liquidity through its management of the mix of assets and liabilities, their related cash flows and the rates earned and paid on those assets and liabilities. Ultimately, the ALM function is intended to guide management in the acquisition and disposition of earning assets and selection of appropriate funding sources.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk (“IRR”) is one of the most significant risks arising in the normal course of business of financial services companies like Peoples. IRR is the potential for economic loss due to future interest rate changes that can impact both the earnings stream as well as market values of financial assets and liabilities. Peoples' exposure to IRR is due primarily to differences in the maturity or repricing of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition,
46
other factors, such as prepayments of loans and investment securities or early withdrawal of deposits, can expose Peoples to IRR and increase interest costs or reduce revenue streams.
Peoples has assigned overall management of IRR to its Asset-Liability Committee (the “ALCO”), which has established an IRR management policy that sets minimum requirements and guidelines for monitoring and managing the level and amount of IRR. The methods used by the ALCO to assess IRR remain unchanged from those disclosed in Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K.
The following table shows the estimated changes in net interest income and the economic value of equity based upon a standard, parallel shock analysis (dollars in thousands):
Increase in Interest Rate | Estimated Increase in Net Interest Income | Estimated (Decrease) Increase in Economic Value of Equity | |||||||||||||||||||||||
(in Basis Points) | September 30, 2012 | December 31, 2011 | September 30, 2012 | December 31, 2011 | |||||||||||||||||||||
300 | $ | 9,934 | 19.9 | % | $ | 7,061 | 13.9 | % | $ | (9,075 | ) | (4.0 | )% | $ | (8,855 | ) | (4.1 | )% | |||||||
200 | 8,300 | 16.6 | % | 6,250 | 12.3 | % | 3,381 | 1.5 | % | 2,036 | 0.9 | % | |||||||||||||
100 | 5,616 | 11.2 | % | 4,548 | 9.0 | % | 9,655 | 4.2 | % | 7,728 | 3.6 | % |
At September 30, 2012, Peoples' Consolidated Balance Sheet remained positioned for a rising interest rate environment, as illustrated by the potential increase in net interest income shown in the above table. While parallel interest rate shock scenarios are useful in assessing the level of IRR inherent in Peoples' Consolidated Balance Sheet, interest rates typically move in a non-parallel manner, with differences in the timing, direction and magnitude of changes in short-term and long-term interest rates. Thus, any benefit that could occur as a result of the Federal Reserve Board increasing short-term interest rates in future quarters could be offset by an inverse movement in long-term interest rates.
Liquidity
In addition to IRR management, another major objective of the ALCO is to maintain a sufficient level of liquidity. The methods used by the ALCO to monitor and evaluate the adequacy of Peoples' liquidity position remain unchanged from those disclosed in Peoples' 2011 Form 10-K.
At September 30, 2012, Peoples had liquid assets of $193.3 million, which represented 9.7% of total assets and unfunded commitments. This amount exceeded the minimal level of $39.8 million, or 2% of total loans and unfunded commitments, currently required under Peoples' liquidity policy. Peoples also had an additional $44.1 million of unpledged securities not included in the measurement of liquid assets.
Management believes the current balance of cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flows from the investment portfolio, along with the availability of other funding sources, will allow Peoples to meet anticipated cash obligations, as well as special needs and off-balance sheet commitments.
Off-Balance Sheet Activities and Contractual Obligations
Peoples routinely engages in activities that involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Consolidated Financial Statements. These activities are part of Peoples' normal course of business and include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments, interest rate contracts and commitments to make additional capital contributions in low-income housing tax credit investments. Traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments continue to represent the most significant off-balance sheet exposure. The following table details the total contractual amount of loan commitments and standby letters of credit:

Standby letters of credit | $ | 36,218 | $ | 40,330 | $ | 39,862 | $ | 40,821 | $ | 41,269 |
Management does not anticipate Peoples’ current off-balance sheet activities will have a material impact on its future results of operations and financial condition based on historical experience and recent trends.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The information called for by this Item 3 is provided under the caption “Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity” under “ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION” in this Form 10-Q, and is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Peoples’ management, with the participation of Peoples’ President and Chief Executive Officer and Peoples’ Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, has evaluated the effectiveness of Peoples’ disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2012. Based upon that evaluation, Peoples’ President and Chief Executive Officer and Peoples’ Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer have concluded that:
(a) | information required to be disclosed by Peoples in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports Peoples files or submits under the Exchange Act would be accumulated and communicated to Peoples’ management, including its President and Chief Executive Officer and its Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; |
(b) | information required to be disclosed by Peoples in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports Peoples files or submits under the Exchange Act would be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and |
(c) | Peoples’ disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. |
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in Peoples’ internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during Peoples’ fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Peoples’ internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of their respective businesses or operations, Peoples or one of its subsidiaries may be named as a plaintiff, a defendant, or a party to a legal proceeding or any of their respective properties may be subject to various pending and threatened legal proceedings and various actual and potential claims. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such matters, Peoples cannot state what the eventual outcome of any such matters will be; however, based on current knowledge and after consultation with legal counsel, management believes these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of Peoples.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes from those risk factors previously disclosed in “ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS” of Part I of Peoples’ 2011 Form 10-K. Those risk factors are not the only risks Peoples faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to management or that management currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect Peoples’ business, financial condition and/or operating results.
